No. True Fallout isn't "silly" except for a few tongue in cheek and 4th wall jokes. Most of that was meant to be taken as humor, NOT canon even in the real 4 games. But anything after Chris Avellone is non canon. It's apocrypha. Take it from someone whose name is actually in credits. Talking about cannibalism, we hear the phrase "In the earlier games, FO3 and NV"...... LOL. Yeah, that exactly sums up what went wrong with the franchise after it was itself cannibalized and worn as a skinsuit
One of the "nice touches" for the show is how they worked some of the perks, like bloody mess and cannibal into it, and pulled no punches about what this would look like in real life.
Slinging bull was at one point a slang term for telling lies to continue a conversation. Thematically, the perk effects line up with this, since you'll be known as a talkative liar. Although it is much funnier to RP throwing actual bull.
Aqua Boy. Did I suddenly grow gills? I mean I won't complain since no rads in water and infinite breath, but what are the implications? Am I just an offbrand aquaman? Am I actual aquaman but the mutated fish hate me? And why do I still get rads drinking the same water I'm bathing in? Seems odd. But I won't complain
For number 2 it’s not weird that cannibalism exist in the wasteland it is weird that a vault dweller from 101 or someone who lived pre-war like in vault 111 and 76 would ever indulge in it
A new channel for long form lore and trivia videos? Yes please!! Great voice, perfect level of energy to keep me engaged, and you seem to be well informed and enjoying yourself. Keep up the great work, and I hope to see more from you
Tame one here but I've always found it funny how in Fallout 4 the crit system basically makes you will your bullet into doing extra damage and not missing
IRL people have been shot in the head and survived. I see critical shots as extra accurate. Especially as I cannot "hold my breath" with the Xbox controller. It supposedly can be done, but not by me. My aimpoint is swinging in an inconsistent lopsided figure 8 and I have to wait and try to time it and fire when my sights are crossing the aimpoint. OR, I can try for a critical shot in VATS because a 32% for a VATS headshot ain't gonna cut it.
But, if you didn't kill said Uncle, and then when you show up he's just lying there and nobody else has claimed it or anything, then you're doing the villagers A FAVOR by eating the corpse. Now, they don't have to bury it or deal with it rotting and smelling bad, and you're not going to be snooping around and trying to eat french fries off of people's plates.
One I find weird is 'Wasteland Whisperer', found in Fallout 4 and 76. "In one easy step, you too can speak Scorpion, Crab, Lizard, Mosquito AND MORE!" Also for reasons, you need THIS to pacify Gen 1 and 2 Synths and not Robotics Expert!
Robotics expert is for hacking more traditional robots, Wasteland Whisperer can affect Gen 1 and 2 Synths because they are codes as monster types. On the other hand, why don't the terrifying presence like perks also affect Synths?
So the dog food one isn't too out there. In the usmc we were taught as a pow you ask for dog food as it's the most nutritionally complete thing you can eat as far as protein fat and carb contents plus the iron and minerals we need.
“Bloody mess” mixed with “Far Flung Fireworks” is the epitome of “I shot you to ded with a tiny gun and not only will you explode into a gory mess but said gore has been turned into a meat grenade”
the best time in a fallout game for me is in fallout one. I got the trait jinxed and used all my points in luck. Made for a lot of funny scenerios, and luck gave me the special encounters. A personal tradition is every fallout character I start with I put everything in luck first. I did it in fallout 2 and 76. There have been several situations in 76 that were weird encounters, and weird scenerios that scream "that was really lucky"
Several of the less practical seem tailor made for niche role playing. Gun Fu seems the opposite of weird. It’s trying to give a reason for higher damage. You’d hardly bat an eye at all the generic gun perks that increase damage with every rank. That’s a staple in games. Gun Fu uses martial arts as a reference to explain that increase. And the game itself performs in a way that makes it make sense. You get into a flow state, finally slowing the world down with each critical hit (the camera slows during criticals.) Your shots grow more deadly as you become more Zen. Just my 2 cents.
Nuclear Anomaly is one: Your health got low so now you explode like a mini nuke and it heals you up to 20 HP and removes your radiation in the process while also damaging anyone around you. Bloody Mess in fallout 4 and 76 if I remember correctly gets really weird at max level, because when you kill someone and they explode into meat bits, there's a chance some of the individuals around them will also explode into meaty bit, so you can literally punch a guy so hard that not only does he explode into meaty bits but so does the guy next to him.
Re: Gun Fu quibble Given the lore function of VATS as "Vault-tec Assisted Targeting System" as creating firing solutions for you to use, presumably Gun Fu functions by increasing optimization of those firing solutions, resulting in increasing damage, a hypothesis further supported by the fact it turns shots at all targets after the third into automatic criticals (which can't miss unless they're physically blocked and you don't have the perk to shoot through cover) on top of the doubled damage.
So so glad to see that you uploaded. I absolutely love everything about your videos. The content. Your voice. I love to use your videos to set a calmer mood before bed. Which is a very exclusive club. Anyways, enough rambling from me. Have a wonderful day my friend.
Wow, thanks so much. If you're looking for more to listen to, these are all pulled from 300+ other episodes you can find on audio platforms. It takes a while to turn them into video, so the YT is a bit behind. Hope you enjoy! open.spotify.com/show/0e30iIgSffe6xJhFKe35Db
gunfu is a reference to the movie Equilibrium. its pretty good, but it came out the same weekend as the first Matrix movie so it didn't do as well as it could have otherwise
In the show I need them to lean into Bloody Mess. By that I mean I want to see the Ghoul shoot a guy with a small pistol and they explode into gore, to the confusion of everyone else around.
Dude who says "Cannibal makes no sense" Sure man, no human or culture has ever done that before or at worse in a survival situation. It certainly doesn't make for good lore or role playing. 🤦 smh
Only time I took the Cannibal perk was the first time playing Survival. But the Dark Craving addiction was WAY too obnoxious. Especially when you accidentally eat a corpse by hitting the wrong button, and boom. Dark Craving. No way to cancel the action. Even when I hit level 286 or whatever and have enough perk points to raise all the SPECIAL attributes to 10 and get every perk too, I will deliberately leave that one alone.
far flung fireworks is more like an extension of meltdown from New Vegas, which is energy weapon kills may cause enemies to explode (and possibly chain react)!
Actally hanatophage is more nuanced The family are canibles (via mutation) who suffer uncontrollable urges. Vance teaches them control and to sait the hunger with blood. So that’s what he’s teaching you
I kind of get gun fix it is an intimidation thing if your buddy just got shot you might look over to check on him dropping your guard in a way but it should be if they die in combat every one else has lower armor or has a chance to flee and it goes up if you pop each guy after. Like you ambush a guy with like 6 guys and boom 1.5 seconds later half your squad is dead. Yeah might be good ideal to run.
Your comment reminds me of RUclips videos of 3 or 4 armed guys breaking into someone's home. A gunshot comes from the homeowners bedroom and the "armed baddies" almost break their necks getting out of that home.
@@biostemm No that's your pip boy making the noise. The bobbleheads have a chip in them that resonate with your pip boys radio. (This is all head canon not lore accuracy or true but it helps make it less weird)
I don't support cannibalism, even if I bite my nails, but there shouldn't be a perk for it, it should be automatic with negatives and positives, whatever they may be. But the music, the music, I knew it would shoot the video to the top of the mountain of quality.
You are playing a solo game unless you are playing the bastard child of Fallout (76). You don't have to put points in a perk you don't like. That is a perk I never consider. I don't want something like that popping up in my dreams.
@@edmartin875 I have almost 3000 hours in FO4, I even have some mods on Nexus, so... my point is that perk cannibalism shouldn't exist, cannibalism should be in the game from the start, but I've been repeating myself.
6:28 OMG IS THIS A CLEVER REFERENCE TO BULLSH1T? Like, your character shovels so much bovine excrement that their ab8lity to bullsh1t people goes up???
Cannibalism is just a Natural part of life Animals throughout all of earth Commit cannibalism Daily It's not that weird Humanity is just conditioned against it by society looking down on it. If anything it's a Natural progression in the wasteland and I'm actually more surprised that it isn't a widespread By more people than the family People Like raiders (you can't tell me the disciples and the Pack don't commit cannibalism) should be doing this on the daily Super mutants do it all the time as well. And I wouldn't be surprised if Fallouts Mutated Fauna do the same like Deathclaws
Entertaining video. Well done. Nice mix of information and calm mediation so you can watch it in bed at night. Just do us a favor: get rid of the robot voice. 😅

Shout out to the FO76 player who named his dog food eating character Roy... Old Roy being a dog food brand 😂
That was pretty funny throwing cans of dog food at Codsworth. Can't say I expected to see that today.
"cannibal perk makes no sense anyway in the lore" so uh whos gonna tell him
Iguana bits
Aqua Boy.

Friendly fire in 76 is only ever used to heal NPCs you're meant to protect during escort missions, not to heal other players
The flamethrower perk is a reference to Team Fortress 2’s Medic.
gunfu is a reference to the movie Equilibrium. its pretty good, but it came out the same weekend as the first Matrix movie so it didn't do as well as it could have otherwise
"friendly fire" has been revised by the US military as "Blue on Blue".
Get rid of those freaky voices announcing the numbers
Aww, that's Buddy Bot. You made him sad.
I think it's cute😮
Agreed, it's unsettling 😱
nah i fw it ✌️🤪
This made me laugh hard as shit

I run good puppy in 76 for a joke, but run carnivore and it makes the effects even better
#7 isn't weird to me. It gives you a bonus for each consecutive hit. For each hit you become more and more focused. More confident in his own skills.
Only time I took the Cannibal perk was the first time playing Survival. But the Dark Craving addiction was WAY too obnoxious. Especially when you accidentally eat a corpse by hitting the wrong button, and boom. Dark Craving. No way to cancel the action.

That's how gun-fu works. Just ask John Woo.

Buddy bot is the robot voice.
Nothing freaky about the voices who do the numbers youre all good man. People are weird lol.
First time seeing this channel I dig it, good luck on future stuff bro I subscribed 😊 look forward to seeing more.
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words. :)
Actally hanatophage is more nuanced
The family are canibles (via mutation) who suffer uncontrollable urges. Vance teaches them control and to sait the hunger with blood. So that’s what he’s teaching you
Cannibal perk, I bet Dogmeat doesn't mind. 😊
It's a really easy way to get Strongs perk. Step 1, go to nuka world and destroy some raiders, step 2 feast in front of strong

I thought the one that makes bobbleheads emit sound in fo76 is kind of weird ..
It's not. People complained about having to look up the bobbleheads because some of them are in the strangest of places
@@ChadOfAllChads it's weird because a perk causes bobbleheads to emit sound, not because it is generally useful...

imagine making a video calling something in a already weird franchise "weird". its not supposed to make sense.
Fallout 76 is an absolutely incredible game and I am tired of pretending it isn’t.
Keep the numbers voices just to spit that one random person who thinks he can tell you how to run YOUR yt channel
Cannibalism is just a Natural part of life
Animals throughout all of earth Commit cannibalism Daily
It's not that weird
Humanity is just conditioned against it by society looking down on it.
If anything it's a Natural progression in the wasteland and I'm actually more surprised that it isn't a widespread By more people than the family
People Like raiders (you can't tell me the disciples and the Pack don't commit cannibalism) should be doing this on the daily
Super mutants do it all the time as well.
